School-Age Programs
Your child needs a safe (and fun!) place to be after school. You need piece of mind that your child is well cared for and engaging in healthy activities. The solution? The YMCA School’s Out Program.
School-Age Childcare
The Y’s afterschool programs provide a safe, enriching and fun environment for kids to enjoy when the school day ends. School’s Out at the Keene Family YMCA is designed to accommodate the needs of working families. Activities may include science and building projects, arts and crafts, swimming, outdoor play, gym games, academic enrichment, and healthy lifestyles education.
For more information about any of our school-age childcare programs, please contact Director of Childcare Services, Jami Daigle at jd*****@ke********.org.
